A base station device including: a transmitter configured to transmit a transport block that includes a plurality of code block groups; and a receiver configured to receive a confirmation signal which indicates that one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups has not been successfully received, wherein the transmitter transmits a control signal when the receiver receives the confirmation signal, and the control signal comprises first information that indicates the one or more code block groups to be retransmitted and second information that indicates data is combined with the one or more code block groups being retransmitted and earlier received one or more code block groups stored in a buffer.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A base station device comprising: a transmitter configured to transmit a transport block that includes a plurality of code block groups; and a receiver configured to receive a confirmation signal which indicates that one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups has not been successfully received, wherein the transmitter transmits a control signal when the receiver receives the confirmation signal, and wherein the control signal comprises first information that indicates retransmission of the one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups to be received and second information that indicates whether the earlier received one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups stored in a buffer are combinable with the one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups to be received to recover data.
2. The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the transmitter retransmits one or more code block groups from the plurality of code block groups indicated by the received confirmation signal.
3. The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more code block groups being retransmitted correspond to the received one or more code block groups.
4. The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the control signal indicates downlink control information (DCI).
5. The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the confirmation signal includes an ACK/NACK bit for each code block group.
6. The base station device of claim 4 , wherein the control signal is included in a downlink control signal that controls PDSCH for transmitting data from the base station device.
7. The base station device of claim 6 , wherein the control signal includes modulation scheme (MCS) information, redundancy version (RV) information, new data indicator (NDI) information and hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) information.
8. The base station device of claim 7 , wherein the redundancy version information indicates the redundancy version of a hybrid automatic repeat request sequence, the new data indicator information indicates whether the data being transmitted in the slot is new data.
9. The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the receiver further receives the confirmation signal that indicates whether the transport block have been successfully received, and the transmitter retransmits the corresponding transport block according to the confirmation signal.
10. A user equipment comprising: a receiver configured to receive a transport block that includes a plurality of code block groups and receive a control signal; and a transmitter configured to transmit a confirmation signal that indicates whether each of the plurality of code block groups is successfully received by the receiver, wherein the receiver receives the control signal after the transmitter transmits the confirmation signal, and wherein the control signal comprises first information that indicates retransmission of one or more of the plurality of code block groups to be received and second information that indicates whether the earlier received one or more of the plurality of code block groups stored in a buffer are combinable with the one or more of the plurality of code block groups to be received to recover data.
11. The user equipment of claim 10 , wherein the receiver receives one or more code block groups from the plurality of code block groups indicated by the transmitted confirmation signal.
12. The user equipment of claim 10 , wherein the one or more code block groups being retransmitted correspond to the received one or more code block groups.
13. The user equipment of claim 10 , wherein the control signal indicates downlink control information (DCI).
14. The user equipment of claim 10 , wherein the confirmation signal includes HARQ-ACK information bits which have a one-to-one mapping with the code block groups.
15. The user equipment of claim 13 , wherein the control signal is included in a downlink control signal that controls PDSCH for transmitting data from a base station device.
16. The user equipment of claim 15 , wherein the control signal includes modulation scheme (MCS) information, redundancy version (RV) information, new data indicator (NDI) information and hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) information.
17. The user equipment of claim 16 , wherein the redundancy version information indicates the redundancy version of a hybrid automatic repeat request sequence, the new data indicator information indicates whether the data being transmitted in the slot is new data.
18. The user equipment of claim 10 , wherein the receiver further receives the corresponding transport block according to the confirmation signal.
19. A base station device comprising: a transmitter configured to transmit a transport block that includes a plurality of code block groups; and a receiver configured to receive a confirmation signal which indicates that one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups has not been successfully received, wherein the transmitter transmits a control signal when the receiver receives the confirmation signal, and the control signal comprises first information that indicates retransmission of the one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups to be received and second information that indicates the one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups to be received to recover data without using earlier received one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups.
20. A user equipment comprising: a receiver configured to receive a transport block that includes a plurality of code block groups and receive a control signal; and a transmitter configured to transmit a confirmation signal that indicates whether each of the plurality of code block groups is successfully received by the receiver, wherein the receiver receives the control signal after the transmitter transmits the confirmation signal, and wherein the control signal comprises first information that indicates retransmission of one or more of the plurality of code block groups to be received and second information that indicates the one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups to be received to recover data without using earlier received one or more code block groups of the plurality of code block groups.
